Cara Delevingne has landed another high profile campaign: as the new face of Saint Laurent. The 20-year-old model features in the fashion house’s autumn/winter 2013-14 advertisements alongside musician Cole Smith of band DIIV.

The images were shot by creative director Hedi Slimane and the campaign will be his first autumn/winter campaign since joining the brand in March 2012.

Tilda Swinton has landed a new role, as Karl Lagerfeld’s new muse. She is now the face of the 2012-13 Métiers d’Art Paris-Edinburgh collection, and now pictures from the campaign have been released.

Tilda Swinton is the perfect casting for Karl’s Scottish collection, which was inspired by Mary Queen of Scots. In the campaign she goes back to her Scottish roots, modelling tartan and Highland overcoats in front of medieval tapestries and oil paintings.

Karl said: ‘Tilda perfectly embodies the Paris-Edimbourg collection. She is of course Scottish, but more than that she is a modern woman, a timeless icon of elegance.’

Rihanna’s has filed a case against Topshop, and is currently suing the brand for an apparent $5 million, for using a picture of her face on a T-shirt without her consent.

However, WWD has reports that unlike the U.S., “there is no right of personality” in the U.K., meaning that Topshop’s use of Rihanna’s photo is completely legal — as long as the company purchased it, so if Rihanna wins her case then it would become a landmark verdict.

The T-shirt was on sale in Topshop’s UK stores at the end of 2012 and featured an image of Rihanna from the video We Found Love .

Rihanna’s second collection for River Island is about to drop into stores on May 25th.

In a behind-the-scenes video released earlier this week, Rihanna can be seen viewing the collection, which has been designed by Adam Selman under her supervision.

“I made a piece for everybody in my crew, we all have different body types and different tastes,” she says. “Some are braver than others, but, you know, I think like that because that’s how all the women in the world are. We’re all different, we all like different things, we all have different occasions, different moods, different body types.” The collection has been created with her ‘crew’ in mind.

There are jumpers and T-shirts emblazoned with her portrait, tie-dyeand floral prints, and some “sexy” cotton pieces that singer says she’ll “live in”.
